The Most Expensive Thanksgiving Ever
November 25, 2021 04:13 - 45 minutes - 41.7 MBHappy Thanksgiving Saints! At a day and time where the world is proclaiming this to be the most expensive thanksgiving ever, we take the time to reflect on giving true thanks. When it seems like there's nothing to be thankful for, men like Habakkuk found strength in their God & found that he had appointed their feet to stand. As we TAKE joy, we will find the same in our day as the days grow darker and darker.
More and More Powerful
November 21, 2021 18:55 - 1 hour - 59.1 MB“More and More Powerful” delivered by Pastor Wade, Pastor Matt, and Pastor Judah show us what it takes to be truly effective in the kingdom and what it means to become more and more powerful. As we looked at the lives of men like David, Mordecai, and Paul, we learned that they were men who feared the Lord instead of the taunts of the enemy. As a result, they built up the surrounding terraces, the lower places in their walls, and dedicated their lives to strengthening other men. When we follow...
The Beautiful Badlands
November 18, 2021 03:27 - 58 minutes - 54 MBChurch, we find ourselves in an amazing time in the history of our body. Our families are building unity like never before, we are building up walls as we prepare for the great work our king is setting before us. We've never been more qualified, more prepared, and more capable as a body to shoulder the load. But just as in the days of Ezra and Nehemiah, there is a deception that can attempt to muddy the water of our discernment as we are growing like never before. Namely, we could be tempted...
We Are
November 14, 2021 18:50 - 52 minutes - 48.4 MB“We Are” preached by Pastor Nik, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt, build us up as a reminder of who we are in Christ. As a body, we are learning how to distinguish and identify the tactics of the enemy that try to hinder us from the joyful work that we must be engaged in the kingdom. As a result, we are awakening to the realities of the kingdom, growing in the unity of the brotherhood, and working hard to cultivate a harvest for our King! This is who We Are!
Come and Take It
November 11, 2021 03:34 - 1 hour - 56.4 MBWe are truly living in a special time in our church. We are learning to build up our walls together and exposing the low places in our walls. Along with this revelation that we only rise together, the Lord depositing a particular kind of attitude in our hearts. It's the "Come and take it" kind of attitude towards the enemy and that which would seek to oppose God's working in our lives. It's the kind of attitude that doubles down on deep convictions and leans into difficulties because we know ...
Walls to THE WALL
November 07, 2021 18:42 - 1 hour - 64 MBIn this sermon entitled “Walls to THE WALL”, Pastor Payton, Pastor Nik, and Pastor Wade exhort us as one body to rebuild the singular wall of the kingdom. This wall can only be built with one stone stacked on the other, causing there to be an interlocking between stones with no gaps in between. An indivisible connection in the building of the kingdom wall is achieved when we as believers entrust our lives to the brothers to our right and left by inviting them into the lowest points of our wal...
Water then Fire
October 31, 2021 16:43 - 59 minutes - 54.1 MBPastor Judah, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt encourage and build us up in this sermon entitled “Water then Fire”. We learned about the two judgements, one that came (water) and one that is yet to come (fire). As sons of the kingdom, we are to consider how we build, as the quality of each man’s work will be tested by the fire. We are called to build with the precious stones of the kingdom, holiness and godliness. By sacrificial servanthood, transparency and ever-increasing unity, we build with g...
Rogue
October 28, 2021 03:30 - 51 minutes - 47.6 MBPastor Payton and brother Adam Corra lead us in going “Rogue” with this captivating sermon. When Christ set us free from an empty way of life and slavery to the world, we turned our backs on this world’s system, choosing to refuse worldly success and pleasures. As we mature in the kingdom, we are required to ‘rogue’ the fields of our hearts, uprooting diseased and rotten plants, so that we can become more fruitful in the kingdom – and we cannot do it alone! We need our brothers to examine the...
Supreme Purpose
October 24, 2021 16:54 - 1 hour - 62.2 MBFor months now the Lord has been highlighting for us how he has always intended for his presence to be carried in a unified team. This has launched us into an all-out pursuit of perfect unity and is blessing our body in many ways. Brothers Carlos Rueda and Justin Treaster propel us even further into this pursuit by shining light on what we are unifying around in this message entitled “Supreme Purpose”. When our only desires are to please him, having our eyes set on what he wants to build, thi...
Dig Down, Build up!
October 21, 2021 02:23 - 54 minutes - 49.7 MB“Dig Down, Build Up!” delivered by brothers Caleb and Paul, encourage us that to achieve perfect unity in the body, it must be birthed out of relationships that are beyond the surface level. These relationships require us to dig down, to sacrifice, and to cultivate. Our relationships with one another serve as a solid foundation to build each other up, and ultimately, build up the house of God as a unified brotherhood. Just like the first century church in the book of Acts, the early believers...
Pride Wars
October 17, 2021 17:17 - 1 hour - 65.4 MB“Pride Wars”, preached by Pastor Wade, Pastor Judah, and Pastor Matt, spur us on to the high calling that are ours in Christ. A bold call and mission to ensure that together we, the Church, are building up a wall of unbroken unity. This means caring for the needs and spiritual welfare of the brothers and families to our right and left, while driving out the things in our lives that intend to undermine, cut off, and separate us. As one body, we are to make every effort to keep in the unity of ...
Hey, Don't Take My Seal
October 14, 2021 02:14 - 47 minutes - 43.6 MBWe are living in exciting times! The Lord is increasing our teams, our team dependency, and our ability to carry the weightiness of God's presence together. We're growing in our boldness and our desire to carry this weight because of the growing acknowledgement that this weight is marking us. Brothers Spencer McClain, Abimbola Daramola, and Justin Linton remind us of a few of the ways our good father is placing his seal of ownership on us. When we recognize the pressings & persecutions, the d...
Permanent Mark
October 10, 2021 17:36 - 1 hour - 55.9 MBPastor Payton, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt deliver an inspiring and encouraging word, continuing to call us to the pattern of unity! In this sermon entitled “Permanent Mark”, we learn that the weighty presence of the Lord is meant to leave a permanent mark on us, and the generations after us. The mark of His glory resting upon us shows us that we cannot be made into victims of our circumstances, but rather we drive out the opposition, because we know to whom we belong! As we carry His presen...
Keep Building
October 07, 2021 02:21 - 52 minutes - 47.9 MBThere are no individual lifts in the kingdom, only team lifts! Brothers Justin Linton and Abimbola Daramola remind us of this fact as they reflect on Sunday's message entitled "Hey, You're not doing that right!". This encouraging sermon from the brothers entitled "Keep Building" reminds us of God's intentional and elaborate design that is always meant to be carried in teams. His heavenly pattern over and over again reminds us that his prescence, his plans, and his will for our lives are only ...
Hey! You're Not Carrying That Right!
October 03, 2021 17:54 - 1 hour - 57.5 MBIn this sermon entitled “Hey! You’re Not Carrying That Right!”, we learned from Pastor Nik, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt that God’s original heavenly design is that we work in teams, and no amount of individual gifting, talents, or anointing can carry the weight of the call alone. The Levites worked together as a God-ordained team to carry the Ark of the Covenant. In the same way, we cannot complete the task alone, but are called to operate in a team. In working together, unity is forged, and...
Who's Next
September 30, 2021 02:23 - 48 minutes - 44.1 MBWe have been given some pretty amazing gifts to the body to prepare us for our works of service. This causes us to reflect on the gift that God gives us by placing us in God-ordained teams. Whether called into the five-fold or called to be a pillar that supports the body, rest assured that you don't have to do this alone! It's so re-assuring the in God's ordained timing, he builds God-ordained teams that help us carry God-ordained burdens. Brothers Justin Linton and Abimbola Daramola encourag...
"Gifted"
September 26, 2021 17:52 - 1 hour - 88.3 MBWhat a special Sunday service we just had! In this sermon entitled “Gifted”, we celebrated the ordination of Pastor Nik Arezina, Pastor Payton Parsons, and Pastor Judah Stephens. This ordination followed the biblical pattern outlined in Numbers 8 for the ordination of the Levitical priests. We recognize that these men working as a unified team are a gift to the whole community, so that together with the community we might make our lives a gift to the world on behalf of Messiah. At LCM, we are...
Reflection on the Seventh Stage of Military Movement
September 23, 2021 02:33 - 49 minutes - 45.4 MBWe are learning to move in the military movement as days are darkening. God is training us, organizing us, and putting us in our military rank and file. He is building a priesthood that represents Christ to a world in such desperate need for salvation. Brothers Payton Parsons, Nik Arezina, and Judah Stephens elucidate for us the pathway by which our heavenly commander has been making us ready for war. Through the proper precision of the pastoring of our homes and by properly preparing the br...
The Seventh Stage of Military Movement
September 19, 2021 17:49 - 1 hour - 59.8 MBWe are learning to man our position as the battle’s rages all around us. Elder Eric, Pastor Wade and Pastor Matt delivered a timely word that helps us refocus on the mission and goal ahead. In this sermon called “The Seventh Stage of Military Movement”, we learned that every man of God is called to be a priest - first and foremost in his own home, and then overflowing to the body of Christ. Through the process of priestly consecration, and the empowerment of His Holy Spirit, we join with our ...
In-Dependence Day
September 16, 2021 02:17 - 51 minutes - 47.4 MBWe are growing, and learning what it is to move as one man. The forefathers who built this country knew how to move as one man, tearing down tyrannical dictatorships for the sole purpose of forming a more perfect union. It’s fitting that brother’s Abimbola Daramola & Justin Linton share a message entitled In-dependence Day! They encourage us to dethrone the monarchs of self-rule shown through deceptive pride, entitlement, and toxic independence in the same way they did! All for the purpose of...
Military Movement
September 12, 2021 18:04 - 1 hour - 63.5 MBWhat a beautiful time we are living in! In this sermon entitled “Military Movement”, Elder Eric, Pastor Matt, and Pastor Wade continue to draw out the biblical gems of how we are to operate as the body of Christ. If we want to truly grow in the Kingdom, it can only be done alongside the brotherhood of believers. This brotherhood made up of many parts, is called to function and operate as one body, connected to each other, and moving in perfect unity! This is Military Movement!
Spoils of War
September 09, 2021 02:51 - 46 minutes - 43 MBStand up! Look ahead! Our heavenly commander is preparing us for what is to come, helping us to reassign the fixed value we place on our brothers and ourselves. With this in mind, we are arming ourselves with the same attitude as Paul, Moses, and all the saints before us who knew who they were and as a result, did great exploits. Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade arm the saints with 4 keys to unlock the treasure that is walking in the fullness of our fixed value. When you know your value doesn't ch...
Winning the War
September 05, 2021 18:33 - 1 hour - 68.8 MBThis soul stirring sermon delivered to us by brothers, Payton, Nik, and Judah, is the call to attention that we need. “Winning the War” is more than a sermon title, it is a principle that must be demonstrated in the way of life of every believer. No Christian is an island to themselves, rather we have been called by our great King to be joined together with our brothers to attain the perfect unity that Christ died for. King Jesus is raising an army that will never be defeated, an army that va...
Seal Team
September 02, 2021 03:03 - 1 hour - 61.5 MBIt’s clear to see that our heavenly commander has been preparing us for the dark and glorious days before us. Through the discipline of our father, we are being trained into mature men that can be sent into the heart of the battle and rise up victorious. Elder Boz and brother Payton encourage our body with this stirring call to arms entitled "Seal Team". As America's most illustrious and revered fighting group, the NAVY Seals are known for their rigorous training requirements, their "I'll die...
Mature Manhood: The Mission of a Priest
August 29, 2021 17:52 - 1 hour - 64.1 MBIn this sermon “The Mission of a Priest”, Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade reveal and complete the last two points out of seven points based in Deuteronomy 33:8-10. We learned that priests are called to stand firm and teach others to the point of transformation and transmission; taking what they know and have experienced and making other men into what they are. This process solidifies the confidence that is ours and is how the body of Christ is built up until we all reach full maturity.
Weight of Responsibility
August 26, 2021 01:59 - 43 minutes - 39.5 MBFollowing up to last Sunday’s message, brothers Justin and Abimbola preached this timely sermon entitled “Weight of Responsibility”. We learn that there is a weight of responsibility laid on our shoulders by our heavenly Father that brings about an ever-increasing development of the priesthood. Under this weight of responsibility, the believer undergoes a spiritual definition that is necessary for growth in the kingdom in order to properly watch over his word and guard his covenant. Listen no...
Mature Manhood: The Mark of a Priest
August 22, 2021 17:29 - 1 hour - 59.5 MBAs we continue our "Mature Manhood" series with this second installment entitled "The Marks of a Priest", our confidence grows as we are fashioned into a mature priesthood. This is the same process we see God using to form Levi into the nation of priests that is described in Deuteronomy 33. As we continue to examine this passage, in addition to receiving discernment, being tested through tension, and judging impartially, the Levites were marked by watching over God's word and guarding his cov...
Ask!, Try!, Grow!
August 19, 2021 02:09 - 56 minutes - 51.3 MBIt's encouraging to see the lengths by which our father is going to make us into mature men. As we reflect on Mature Manhood: The Making of a Priest, we see how the priesthood was made. The call from our heavenly father is clear, he is making us into a holy priesthood in the exact same way. This gives us confidence that as ask for what we need of him, have the courage to give all then we will grow into mature manhood. Listen to this encouraging message from brothers Justin Linton and Abimbola...
The Making of a Priest

With the Levitical Priesthood as our example, we learn the first three steps in The Making of a Priest! Listen to this sermon now to mature your manhood!
Hang 10
August 12, 2021 01:56 - 43 minutes - 40.3 MBWhat a blessing it is to have directed steps! On Sunday we learned what it meant to follow our Big Kehunah! To ride the wave of obedience by guarding the mission or mishmeret of both our high priest and the people of God at the same time! This Wednesday we reflect of that message with the sermon “Hang 10” brought by Pastor Matt and Brother Abimbola Daramola. We learned to let all ten of our toes hang over the board! What that means is that we can have supreme confidence that we will be able t...
The Big Kehunnah
August 08, 2021 17:04 - 1 hour - 64.7 MBIn this sermon entitled “The Big Kehunnah” by Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade, we learned after undergoing the refinement process of what it takes to produce a priest from Numbers 8, the aim was always that the priests may be ready to do the work of the LORD! This type of work already prepared in advance demands that the priesthood guard the mission entrusted to them by the Lord. As this is true for the Levitical Priesthood, it is also true for us believers today. We are called to be priests, who...
Measuring Peter and Paul's Deep Convictions
August 05, 2021 02:22 - 57 minutes - 52.7 MBWe conclude our reflections on the priest-making process with this sermon entitled "Measuring Peter and Paul's Deep Convictions". We've been talking about things like not fearing the razor, living in a joyfully willing manner towards the Lord. all so that we can show ourselves measuring up to the mature manhood of Christ! We want to be made into mature men in Christ & in the lives of Paul and Peter, we find the process by which Christ makes his followers into mature men. It's through pruning ...
Hey! Don't Cut My "Prunes"
August 01, 2021 17:30 - 1 hour - 65.3 MBChurch! We conclude the outline of the Levitical process as displayed in Numbers 8 in this sermon entitled “Hey! Don’t cut my Prunes”. Elder Eric, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt walk us through the beautiful imagery of the end goal of every believer; to reach mature manhood by measuring up to Christ. This maturing process of a Christian’s life is not a private, exclusive, or isolated matter, rather, just like the selection of the Levites, is it very much a public pruning meant to bring about tr...
Willing With What You Have
July 29, 2021 02:31 - 1 hour - 58.8 MBOh what it is to be made into a holy and righteous priesthood! Our father is blessing us with the revelation of how priests are made. We are learning to press into what will perfect us as priests with messages like "Don't fear the razor" and "A shave and two bulls". Our good father has equipped us for what is good for doing his will. We have a lot to give and that is exactly what he's asking of us, what we have. As we are hearing this call to press into the razor, we want to do it willingly. ...
A Shave and Two Bulls
July 25, 2021 18:12 - 1 hour - 59.8 MB“A Shave and Two Bulls” is more than a thought-provoking sermon title, it delivers a crushing truth that pairs along with it. Elder Eric and Pastor Matt continue in Numbers 8 with steps three and four in the seven-step process of how Priest of God are developed. We learned the importance of the Two Bull process and how it affects our lives in the Kingdom. When we have a willing heart to obey our King regardless of the circumstances, we find His favor and redemption in response to our voluntar...

Brothers Justin and Abimbola deliver a gripping and liberating word in this sermon entitled “Exposed”.

In this sermon entitled “Don’t Fear the Razor” by Elder Eric, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt, brought to life the biblical truth of the ever-increasing need of biblical discipleship and the process by which it is done. This process first illustrated in how the Lord set apart His people (Israel), teaches us that in order to be made spotless, priestly, and united with Him, we must not fear the razor. Instead, it is necessary to l...
Too Good Not to Move
July 15, 2021 02:50 - 1 hour - 55.4 MBWe are basking in the revelation given to us by our good father and we are beginning to grasp the word of his promises in a special way. The certainty of God's promises to Israel is settling in on us and deepening our own faith as gentiles. Brothers Abimbola Daramola and Justin Linton encourage us with the truth of God's word to his chosen sons. As gentiles, we can see how the sons of Israel responded to God's word to them and we are partaking in the benefits of it today! It is astonishing th...
Clarion Call
July 11, 2021 16:09 - 1 hour - 57.3 MBWe are learning to follow the leading of our Father and it is glorious! In this sermon entitled “Clarion Call”, Pastor Wade and Pastor Matt sound a call to action in an expository walk through of Numbers chapter 10. In Numbers, we learned the prescribed way of how the Lord instructed the nation of Israel to sound a clarion call for various conditions…we also must recognize the clarion call being made to us. To receive this clarion call our ears must be trained so that we can give a clarion ca...
Prepare to Move
July 08, 2021 02:18 - 59 minutes - 54.2 MBOur faithful father has surely been stirring up his church. He is getting us into alignment with his will at an exhilarating pace. The rate of this change may seem jarring at first, but Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade remind us that this is precisely what it looks like to follow the Lord's commands. Whether by day or by night, Israel consistently moved out at the Lord's direction and so must we. You see the Lord has a singular unchanging plan, but he calls out to us to participate in his plan as ...
Covenant Calling to You
July 04, 2021 18:03 - 1 hour - 67 MBIn this sermon entitled “Covenant Calling to You”, we have our eyes opened to the essential and foundational importance of the Law by understanding it through its proper biblical lens as a Covenant of Love. This Covenant of Love as displayed in the book of Leviticus (Vayikra) to the nation of Israel, teaches us about the nature of our Father; a good Shepherd calling out to us that we might have the opportunity to draw near Him. This drawing near Him as characterized in the life of David, serv...
Free Fallin'
July 01, 2021 02:15 - 53 minutes - 48.6 MBThe Lord is truly directing our steps as a body, and now much more as individuals as we are growing in the depth of his word. We are stretching out in new ways and the Lord is shepherding us into maturity. In this process, we are learning just how our good father is stirring us up and lifting us higher so that he can catch us. Like children being tossed in the air by their father, we are learning to trust him more as we go higher. It may seems at times like we're tumbling out of control, and ...
Directed Steps
June 27, 2021 16:01 - 1 hour - 65.6 MBWe are growing in our elevation of God’s word! In this sermon entitled, “Directed Steps”, Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade breakdown how a man’s steps are directed by the Lord through an examination of Proverbs Chapter Two. While it may be easily agreed that the life of a believer must be directed by the Lord, we learn the primary source of our heavenly Father’s direction to us is unequivocally direction based on His word! In a time and day where some are looking for ways to dissect His word, we a...
Increase & Drive Out
June 24, 2021 02:13 - 59 minutes - 54.8 MBOur church is experiencing a time of abundant fruitfulness! The Lord has blessed us with an overflow of children, marriages are being maximized, and ministries are being multiplied. We are learning that with increased fruitfulness comes increased opposition. We can see clearly just how victoriously he's led us through the opposition, and just as clearly still recognize that we aren't "there" yet. We have some persevering to do! Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade lay out four obstacles that must be o...
Do Not Hold Back
June 20, 2021 17:19 - 1 hour - 62.6 MBPastor Matt and Pastor Wade open our eyes to the hidden gems in God’s word in this sermon entitled “Do Not Hold Back”. Through a beautiful exegesis of Isaiah 54:2-3, we learn the importance of the ever-increasing kingdom of God that must be displayed in the need for an ever-increasing life in every believer. This increase can only come through being stretched spiritual in the most uncomfortable of ways and the results of this God ordained process will produce lasting fruit. As you dive into t...
Get To Work!
June 17, 2021 03:32 - 1 hour - 56.5 MBOur brothers Justin and Abimbola deliver a powerful word in this sermon entitled ‘GET TO WORK!”. Drawing from the disciple’s interaction with Jesus at the end of His earthly ministry, we can see a cyclical pattern that brings about the necessary transformation required in all believers.

We learned the true purpose of the Signs in front of us are the mechanism that beckons us forward into transf...
Step Up, Raise Up!
June 13, 2021 17:17 - 1 hour - 57.6 MBChurch! We are building momentum with full steam ahead in this sermon entitled “Step Up, Raise Up”. Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade give a clarion call to the family of God to our responsibility to Step Up into the chaos all around us. In a time when others are shying away, avoiding, or even stepping down from those difficult moments, we are called to Step Up because the word of God demands it. The result of Stepping into these chaotic situations ultimately will bring about Raising Up God’s right...
Reflection - Step 7 - Cycles of Secure Sons
June 10, 2021 02:35 - 1 hour - 55.1 MBSaints, this may be the end of our reflection series, but we are just beginning to tap into our security as sons. We are beginning to know him better as we continue this perpetual cycle that is securing us as sons. In fact, throughout the entire Remember and Reflection series, we have been learning just how God has been securing his sons for millennia. It is a well-trodden path that he is divinely enabling us to walk in. We see that by the way in which it is closely related to the 7 steps of ...

Elder Eric, Pastor Matt, and Pastor Wade lead us into the culmination of this series in this sermon entitled “Remember: Secure Son Step Seven”.
